Kids Protein Supplement GuideDo kids need protein supplements?
For most healthy kids eating a varied diet, probably not. Here is how to think about it, without hype in either direction.
Start with the diet
Look at what your child eats across a typical week, not a single day. Eggs, dairy, meat, beans and nuts all count, and many kids get plenty without trying.
When to ask
If appetite, growth, allergies or a restricted diet are a concern, ask your pediatrician or a registered dietitian. They can look at the specifics and give advice for your child.
If you add something
Keep it simple, pick a product with a clear label and treat it as a snack. Punchies list 5g of protein per five-gummy serving and state that they contain milk.
Watch for pressure
Marketing can make parents feel they are falling short. They are not. Do what works for your family. Related reading: What 'original' means on a kids protein gummy label on originalkidsproteingummies.com.
